After their kissing video went viral on social media, Gauahar posted a clip on her Instagram Stories, in which she said, “To the whole world, media and everybody, when Alliance started, everyone was like Oh My God, Zaid Darbar and Kushal Tandon are in one show and there’s going to be crazy hate for each other. Ek insaan ka past aur ek insaan ka forever kaise ek show main ho sakta hai, it’s going to be crazy.”
